The Arklow to Shillelagh greenway project, which is of great importance for tourism on the east coast and in south Wicklow and north Wexford, is still stuck at phase 2. There has been no update since 2023 so two years have passed without visible progress. It will be an absolutely tremendous asset for the area, providing scenic walking and cycling routes through the beautiful valleys of south Wicklow. It will extend benefits into north Wexford and across the east coast. It will connect the villages and towns of Shillelagh, Tinahely, Annacurra, Aughrim, Woodenbridge and Arklow. As the Minister knows, the Wicklow Mountains are a great attraction. This is a unique opportunity to develop a flagship tourism project in the region. The constituents of south Wicklow and north Wexford are very frustrated that it has not yet moved to phase 3. We still have to go through phases 4, 5, 6 and 7, the construction phases, so they fear we might not see a greenway for another ten years or so. That is simply not good enough. Will the Minister explain the delay? Will he commit to ensuring the project progresses in a timely manner? Will he give a timeframe for delivery?

The Deputy knows I do not have the information. He knows it is not reasonable to expect me to know the status of every greenway in this country when answering questions on promised legislation. If he wanted an answer, he should have let me know he was going to raise this particular issue. I then could have given him a more detailed answer. It is not acceptable to expect that, when I am on my feet responding on a variety of issues, I would know the status of every greenway in our country, even one as important as this one. I know the part of the country the Deputy is referring to well. I know how beautiful it is and that a greenway will only benefit those who live there and those who want to visit. I will commit to making sure the Minister for tourism and the Minister for Transport are aware of the issue the Deputy has raised but, if this issue is as important as he believes it to be, it would have been reasonable to let me know he was going to raise it so that I could have done the issue justice here in the Dáil today. In the absence of that information, I am not able to do so. I will raise the issue with the Ministers responsible for this area, however.

Even next week would be grand.
